Chapter 7:
7.1
Set the B-Axis Work Offset
If the fixture or workpiece requires you to adjust the B Axis to achieve the proper alignment
for machining, use this procedure to adjust and record the B-Axis work offset.
CAUTION:
Do not use a B-Axis offset if your program uses Dynamic Work Offsets
(G254). The B-Axis offset value must be zero.
1.
Adjust the B Axis until the workpiece is positioned to the same orientation established
in the program. Typically, the top surface of the fixture or workpiece will be
perpendicular to the Z Axis.
2.
Press [OFFSET] until the Work Zero Offset table appears. Press the cursor
arrow keys to scroll to the work offset value used in the program (G54 in this
example).
3.
Highlight the B AXIS column. Press [PART ZERO SET] to record the offset.
7.2
Set the C-Axis Work Offset
NOTE:
If the fixture or workpiece requires you to adjust the C Axis to achieve
the proper alignment for machining, use the following procedure to
adjust and record the C-Axis work offset.
